It’s a Flood, Actually Two Floods – Wednesday, February 17th, 2025

There are 93 Marvels today, 53 DC’s, 21 Images, and 31 others. Not a record, but that’s a lot of Marvels! My store in Mpls had a water main break and it took 30 hours to completely shut it off, and we are in the middle of recovery, insurance, mitigation, disposal and wondering about where to go after the trauma. I’m exhausted and thinking about a new career after this weird “retirement”.

I haven’t even told Bob, and just carved out the minimum time to do this and Facebook for him, cause I can’t lift wet boxes ALL the time and need a break. With that in mind, the pictures also show a minimum investment. Sorry.

Thanks to League Of Comic Geeks for this week’s images, which are in some unusual, non-alphabetical order, and 6 across. Use the list, and MAYBE the pictures will be useful. Again, I do not have time to sort the images into publisher groups.

Wednesday is still New Comic Day, no matter what you read on the internets. Watch this space and our Facebook page for the latest news about the rest of the month, season, year, millennium, etc. (And text messages from 5-Star.) The complete list is found below.
